I had no idea this existed

It is awesome and horrific all at once. Enjoy.


P.S. I love that we already had a "Bee Gees" label

    Oh yes. One of the worst rated films ever but some classic cameos. Haven't seen this since I was in high school. Frampton didn't do himself any favors in this.

    in unrelated, but very 2016ish news, the plane crash that killed nearly the entire chapecoense soccer team is a horrible story. fought their way up to brazil's top division after years in the lower tiers, having their best season, flying to compete in the finals of a regional champions league-like event, and nearly the entire team killed. fuck everything.

    Frampton was awesome at Cap Center in '76. Check out his Tiny Desk show. Mad guitar skillz.

    There's still a shitload of goodness out there, friends. You just gotta work harder to dig it up from underneath the garbage of the day and it's harder to focus on it through the tears. Can be done, though, and I'd say those of us at this here blog should be taking it upon ourselves to do what others aren't willing or clever enough to do. Starting with me. Game on.

    the brazil soccer plane is crash is a tragedy. nonetheless, it reminded me of when george costanza brought up the same scenario with keith hernandez.

    GEORGE: But if you think about it...26 teams, 162 games a season, you'd think
    eventually an entire team would get wiped out.

    also, i wasn't trolling when i said philly has better food than nyc. new york has some great restaurants, and also a million bad ones, and they are spread out. philly has excellent pubs, italian food, seafood, farm to table, local joints, cheesesteaks, the reading market, a decent chinatown for asian food-- and it's all cheaper than nyc and in walking distance. there are several great places to eat near every major attraction, and they are kid friendly. i'm not knocking new york, but it's way harder to get around with kids, and it's way harder to find a great pub with excellent beer, good food, and a place that is also family friendly. the good dog and jack's firehouse are two winners in this regard.

    Okay, since we are seriously dedicated to the premise that life would be better if we all took ourselves a little less seriously...

    Quiplash. Fun game I played this weekend. Requires a computer and/or AppleTV (or the like) and a handful of players with smartphones. Requires creativity for maximum enjoyment. Can be turned vulgar (a la Cards Against Humanity) if vulgarians are playing, which was heartily amusing.

    Trump put himself in a very weird place--when he picks outsiders with no government experience people write "This clown has no experience, how can he run [fill in the name of a federal agency]!" and when he picks experienced bureaucrats people write "He's going back on his campaign promise to drain the swamp of Washington insiders!"

    Clearly he gives no shits whatsoever about this quandary, but it's a quandary nonetheless.

    his supporters do. not. care. example: they're lauding a deal with carrier to keep some (not all) jobs in the u.s., despite the fact that it came with tax breaks, precisely the kind of deal he said was bad for america. but he got shit done!

    Trump's bigger issue is all the hyperbole he uses when speaking. It's going to get him, really US, in trouble. It's already stoking the fires in Pakistan and India.

    A guy a know and like from my town told me and TR that he was voting for Trump because he'd get stuff done, right after agreeing with us that Trump is nuts. I said having Trump get stuff done scares me more than getting nothing done. We agreed to stop the discussion before TR called Trump a dildo. Again.
